I Still Believe
Seem to pour from my heart
I've never felt so torn before
Seems I don't know where to start
But it's now that I feel Your grace fall like rain
From every fingertip washing away my pain
'Cause I still believe in Your faithfulness
'Cause I still believe in Your truth
'Cause I still believe in Your Holy Word
Even when I don't see, I still believe
Though the questions still fog up my mind
With promises I still seem to bear
For even when answers slowly unwind
It's my heart I see You prepare
But it's now that I feel Your grace fall like rain
From every fingertip washing away my pain
'Cause I still believe in Your faithfulness
'Cause I still believe in Your truth
'Cause I still believe in Your Holy Word
Even when I don't see, I still believe
Well the only place I can go is into Your arms
Where I throw to You my feeble prayers
Well in brokenness I can see that this is Your will for me
Well help me to know that You are near
'Cause I still believe in Your faithfulness
'Cause I still believe in Your truth
'Cause I still believe in Your Holy Word
Even when I don't see, 'cause I still believe
'Cause I still believe
'Cause I still believe
I still believe, I still believe
Well I still believe
I still believe
I still believe

life from all directions
GOD has been doing some awesome things. My roommate Laurel got an awesome new job at Landmark (her home basically). I am really excited for her but it does mean she and Jenny are moving to Montgomery soon, which makes me super sad. But, I am excited because another friend, Nikki, offered me a room in her house. Also, I started a new job today that GOD is using to provide for me, which is awesome..HE is most definitely taking care of me and I feel stupid for the times I doubted HIM.
In other news, I watched HIM save 2 lives and create a few as well in the last couple of weeks. Kale Michael is one of HIS newest creations...
So it's been an amazing time of ups and downs, laughs and tears (yes tears from me, the one with no emotions. haha)
But GOD is good all the time. All the time GOD is good.

So thank you Jenna for tagging me in that lovely blog game. haha. This is me right now chilling in the KUC skipping class. I guess I'll tag Rachael (take a pic of you right now without primping and put it on here) and pretend to tag T because he doesn't blog, he just stalks other people's blogs.
In other news, my mom somehow managed to call me and say, "Hey, I have 2 free VIP passes to that crawfish boil you wanted to go to." So, needless to say, I will be running away to Birmingham for the weekend after my back to back Immunology and Physiology finals on Friday. I'd say that I'm deserving of a runaway weekend haha. Jason Mraz and I will be getting married there shortly after I tell him that he loves JESUS..or maybe it's that JESUS loves him..regardless, it's happening and you're invited!

The title of this blog pretty much sums up the swirling thoughts in my head. I feel like there are so many things running through my mind. They don't get seperated or sorted. They just bog me down until I'm just overwhelmed and then have no idea what is overwhelming me. Then, I don't even know what to do.
I have felt lately so distant from GOD. It's like I cry out to HIM but HE doesn't show, when everything in me knows that's not the case. I really feel like I'm just in a state of desolation and being attacked by Satan, using my weakest points to distort reality into something it's not. I have had to spend alot of time in repentance lately. I haven't been who I want to be and my life hasn't been an act of worship. There are 2 songs that have had some serious impact on my reaching this breaking point of getting all this out of my head and onto here. The first is a song with a chorus that goes like this...

who.i.am
Drawing nearer to GOD brought me to this realization, and drawing even nearer to HIM is what has propelled me to find myself somewhere in all the jumble. It's been a slow process, but today, a small lightbulb popped up over my head and I began to understand some things. I always searched for one thing that bound me to people, whether it was one thing we had in common or a certain type of profile that 'they' fit. I wanted to know where mine was. But, that never came. Then, as miniscule as this realization may seem, I finally understood I can fit all sorts of 'profiles' or 'groups'. I don't just have to be one "type" of person.
I love sports, but I also love theater. I am super competitive, and don't really like that about myself. I like to run when I'm stressed. I enjoy reading. I love acoustic music. But, I also enjoy hard electric rock and the occasional dip into the world of bluegrass. And, when I'm playing a sport, a little rap comes into the mix. I like to paint and draw, even though I'm horrible at both. I love the outdoors and everything about it. I like to sit outside alone with my guitar and talk to JESUS. I like having something to do. I like having nothing to do. I like musicals. I want to learn everything I can about my GOD and the life that JESUS led. I want to be drawn nearer to knowing GOD daily. My time with HIM alone is invaluable. I love to listen to people talk about GOD and their ideas and takes on things. I like to go out and listen to live music. I also have my moments where I'm a bit of a science nerd. Sometimes, I just want to act crazy, and need friends that are right there with me. I have judged and been judged, neither of which are fun. I have loved and been hurt. I have failed, and failed, and failed. My pride gets the best of me, but now I rejoice in my weakness. This is ME.
And the biggest thing I've learned is that being all these 'contridictory' things, as determined by society, is OK!!! Who knew?! I don't fit a mold, but that's because the CREATOR made me unique, and in HIS image. wow.

This picture means absolutely nothing to alot of people. To others, they know it as "laminin, it holds everything together and it's shaped like a cross." I love that concept, but I also am amazed it the many small parts that all had to come together in a precise fashion to even form this protein.
